These are great running shoes for my routine (3-5 miles/d, 3-5 days/wk). Stable enough to protect and cushion my 40-something year old knees, but lighter weight than my previous trainers. Enjoying them very much!

I tried on a variety of different running shoes, and as usual, the Brooks was the perfect fit for me. I have bunions, and these shoes have a wide enough toe box for my picky feet. :) They are lightweight and comfortable, too!

Since I began runnning, I have always worn stability shoes. The asics gt 2000s then the Kayanos. I was always told that i needed netural shoes but insisted on stabilty shoes. I tried the cumulus and had a bad expierence with them. So i was NOT about neutral shoes. Finally after seasons of it-band issues and noticing that my shoes were mostly worn on the outside heel, i decided to try neutral shoes. I was very hesitant to try a brand other than asics but i had heard a lot of good things about these shoes so I decided to give them a try. The first couple of days in them my shins hurt, but I think this was to be expected since I went from stability to neutral. Anyways since getting these shoes I have not had ANY it-band problems(knocks on wood) and love that these shoes are very light weight yet still comfotable and not as stiff as the cumulus. By far the best shoes I have ever owned, wished I would have tried them sooner. So if you ever go to a shoe place and they reccomend a certain type of shoe, TRUST them. Especially when you can return them after wearing them. Sometimes you have to give them some time. Def the case with these shoes!I run 50-60 miles a week and am on a college team.

As a gal who thought the Ghost 5 was hands down, the best running shoe ever, I was hoping for more of the same. But the Ghost 7 is considerably lower quality, and the changes they made created an inferior product rather than an improved one. The new shoes have a tightness in parts of the mid-foot and toe box and the new cushioning develops a sharpness at the edges that can start to rub the foot on long runs. The blisters start to get really painful at about mile 4. I was hoping they'd get better with time, but after a considerable break-in period, they are still terribly uncomfortable because of the fit. There is definitely more cushioning than the Ghost 5, which would be nice if it didn't have the added effect of creating a heaviness and less springy ride than the 5, increasing fatigue, and like I said earlier, rubbing in spots at the edges and creating blisters. I had to return my first pair because it was defective. The company replaced it for free, so that was good. But all in all, I really don't like this shoe. DON'T MESS WITH PERFECTION- and you had perfection with the Ghost 5. Why, Brooks, why????

I had high hopes for this shoe after having returned the latest Wave Rider b/c that shoe was too narrow for my wide foot. I did purchase the wide version in the Ghost, and it certainly was wide enough in the toe box, which I loved. However, after 3 runs, my shins are acting up and my arches are killing me. I ran in them with inserts and without; same result with both. I think just the mid foot platform is too narrow, and therefore unstable for someone with a wide foot who is a mid foot striker. That and the arch seems to be too high for my relatively flat foot. I think this shoe would work great for a lot of runners. I just happen to be one of those weird runners with a wide foot, flat arch, who does not overpronate. Returning for Saucony IsoTriumph (which my arch seems to love).

Great fit and comfort. The best part was the shoe buying experience at Road Runner. Very helpful, knowledgeable staff helped me to pick out the perfect shoe for training to walk a 39.3 mile walk for breast cancer.

Since its cold outside I only use these sneakers in the gym. They really make a difference on the treadmill and throughout my workout. Grrrreat support. I am truly happy with my purchase. I tried on other sneakers, wasn't looking for a specific color, or look. The ghosts were the most comfortable for me. Highly recommend them!

this is my 4 pair of ghosts and every single one the material has come apart at the ankle...I do not understand this at all but this is also the first time i have written a review on it..probably should give brooks a shout out to see why this is happening???hmmmmm

I'm a slight pronator, but my stability shoes were causing ankle pain and my podiatrist suggested trying a neutral pair. I tried these and Asics Cumulus; went with the Ghosts because they felt much lighter and more flexible, and the forefoot cushioning felt right. So far, so good -- no ankle pain and plenty of cushion for running on pavement. Toe box is a little wide for me, but my foot is on the narrow side (the Asics were actually a better fit width-wise) so it's probably true to size or a tiny bit wider. I got them in hot pink to brighten up those grey winter runs and the color was as pictured. I really love being able to look forward to my runs again instead of being anxious about pain!

These are my favorite running shoes to date. I have a medium to low arch and like a wide toe box. These are lighter than many other neutral shoes that I have found, but have ample cushion. Love these shoes and will be incredibly sad if they ever stop making them.

I am really happy with my new Ghosts. I have worn Mizuno Wave Riders for the last 15 years and needed a change after feeling pretty lackluster about their latest model. The Ghosts feel amazing on my feet, they're lightweight and super cushion-y. I broke them in after the first run and am now a total Brooks convert. Really quality shoe, beautiful design, great performance. You won't regret trying them!

This is my main road running shoe, but I used it as a trail shoe for some time until I found a trail-specific shoe I liked. It stood up to the rigors of trail running all around so I was very pleased with the durability. It outlasted the normal miles/replacement age of the sole. I didn't have this shoe when I was training for my first ultramarathon, but my sense is it would have helped me more than the maximalist shoes I wore for training and for the 50-mile race. While initially a fan of maximalists, the design does not provide enough stability for my inherently-unstable body construction -- my physical therapist's words (stretchy tendons). I'm back to standard running shoes and it feels right.

I prefer flat laces and these lace well with them ... pulls back half of shoe comfortably snug. And, yay, there are more colors to choose from than pink, purple or gray/black! Even teal is getting to be the only blue option. The predominance of these colors in women's shoes over the past decade is so frustrating that I'm tempted to buy the men's -- already did once now. Shoe color falls at the bottom of my list when selecting a running shoe, but this is getting really, really old. What's wrong with blue, red, yellow, green, orange for women? It's not like my whole closet is full of pastels either. Once my shoes are retired from running, I like to wear them for kick-arounds. I'm into sports and I like sporty colors, too. I know I'm not the first female to complain.

Back to important matters, I just purchased the D width to see if it would help reduce blistered toes during my really long runs but not enough miles to be conclusive yet. They are certainly wider than I would wear for walking or even up to running 15 or so miles. The regular width (B) actually handles my narrow heel and wide forefoot quite well, but perhaps the even wider toe box may help with reducing blisters. (I'm ordering a half-size bigger now, too.)

I have a hard time finding anything I'm dissatisfied with on the Ghost's, and it has become my favorite shoe. It's not difficult to see why the shoe is so popular. I only wish a trail version of the Ghost was provided, basically add a more aggressive tread.

I have suffered for over a year from Achilles issues in both ankles (possibly due to an increase in mileage during marathon-training season (150M x month) and/or lower heel-to-toe ratio in my running shoes). I wore NB1080 and loved their lightweight and responsiveness. Despite Sorbothane inserts + heel pads, my Achilles issues were getting worse. I tried the new Nike Pegasus (too stiff and boxy, and aggravated my Achilles).The day prior to a half marathon, I bought the Ghost7. (Believe me,I know better than to test a new pair of running shoes during a race but deperate times call for desperate measures). The Ghosts are amazing! As light and responsive as my NB, more cushiony and stable, AND the higher heel-to-toe ratio has helped my Achilles issues tremendously!!I have only wore them for 3 weeks, so I cannot comment on durability. My NB lasted 250-300M max. I'll be happy if they last just as much. I am a convert :)

I was hoping this would be my new training shoe. When I put my foot in the shoe, it was the most comfortable, soft running shoe I've worn! But alas, I have feet that are a little too wide, because I got small friction points in the toe box.

My feet were swelling after around 5 miles and my regular width Mizunos were feeling too tight causing my feet to become numb. I went to RoadRunner Sports looking for a suggestion. Nick recommended the Brooks Ghost 7. I didnt care for the look of the shoe but trusted his expertise. I am SO glad I did! My feet have never felt better. They are light, and fit well on the heel and arch. I wouldn't wear them outside of running but that is what they are for so it's ok.

I bought these to rotate into my shoe collection that was rapidly wearing out after training for Ironman Boulder and now the Rock-N-Roll Marathon. I have been a Brooks lover for years, so this is not my first pair. These shoes are meeting all of my expectations; great support, breathable, roomy toe box, no blisters, and light as a feather.

I typically run anywhere from 15-25 miles a week, in addition to cross training at the gym. I needed a new running sneaker that was both lightweight, supportive and had a wide enough toe box so as to not aggravate my horrible bunions! These are perfect! I can easily run 6 miles without any discomfort at all. I have been recommending these to my patients who are avid runners and all of which have loved them :)

I got fitted in-store late 2013, and these were among the choices selected after my gait analysis. I originally chose another shoe because this one seemed TOO light and bare. But after 8 hours in the other shoe, I returned to the store for the Ghost 6. I have been happy as a clam walking and running in the 6. I wasn't doing any serious exercise, so my original shoes lasted about 9 months.

A month or two ago, I started picking up my mileage and getting serious about running. It became apparent within the first few weeks that I needed to replace my 6s. I was nervous to try the 7. When I was a die-hard Asics lover, I was let down by next gens of the Cumulus. Despite the bad taste in my mouth, it needed to be done.

I have been running/walking on these shoes for a solid week now and absolutely LOVE THEM. They feel light and fluffy and new with everything I loved about the 6s still intact - only new!

The toebox is super spacious, which I love. The wide size gives me room, but not too much. My heel sits pretty nice in it, though I do have to strap them on tight since my heel is really narrow. They're still light but with good cushion. The arch support isn't all that big a factor for me since I supinate and get neutral shoes to correct my gait.

I wore these to work one day (and got over 10,000 steps) to break them in. There was a little discomfort at first, but nothing too terrible. After that, they were pretty much ready to go for a short 4-mile run. Any initial discomfort subsided.

I will be buying more of these 7s to ease the inevitable transition to the 8 in a year or so because they're so wonderful.

I've been wearing Brooks for years because I need narrow shoes. The Ghost 7 feels like the Ghost 5, which I liked. I found the Ghost 6 oddly tight across the widest part of my foot. My only complaint is that the Ghost sole wears out faster than the soles of my old Adrenalines an Defyances.

I run a minimum of 25 miles/week and am currently training for the Honolulu Marathon. These shoes replaced my Ghost 6s which lasted through the last marathon training, the race, plus 4 months! So I'm counting on these to be just as durable.
